Britney Spears has been criticised after deciding to release controversial single 'If U Seek Amy'.

The singer has infuriated an Australian mother's group with the lyrical content of her third single from Circus.

In the song, Britney sings "All of the boys and all of the girls are beggin' to, If You Seek Amy" which, when sung quickly, sounds like "F.*.*.K me."

"I was astonished and totally taken aback when I heard my five and seven-year-old-kids walking around the house singing '******'," mother Leona Barsenbach told Undercover.com.au.

"When I asked them what it was, they told me it was Britney Spears. I was horrified.

"I got them the Circus album because little kids are Britney fans, but there was no warning on the album and none of the songs listed had ****** in the title.

"Listening to it, it is extremely blatant and offensive. I feel I have been deceived into believing that this was acceptable content for children but instead it is objectionable."

Britney releases her new single 'Circus' in the UK on February 16.

...isn't it a play on words?
because i thought it was meant to be saying that but in a way that you can go "HAHA OF COURSE IT ISN'T! IT SAYS 'IF YOU SEEK AMY', SILLY"!
or is it actually innocent??

I think it was a play on words.. I see no harm...
The Script have a song called, "If you see Kay" which is also a play on words...
Its harmless if you ask me..

if intentional there should be a warning

Exactly, and in this case they even had the so called offensive text in the damn title.
These idiots deserve an additional 400 hits to there rick rolled score.

Wow those people are sad, A Mothers group are slagging it off lol

Well my suggestion to them is to take the album away.

Also there is nothing wrong with it she doesn't say ***** so there isn't a problem.

This is the first time I have listend to If U Seek Amy and It is not my favorite song on Circus. :love:
